FAQ:

Q.) How to continuosly use previous recorded file
A.) Firstly, create a new personal account(e.g new_record.otm) on OTimer main screen. Then open the folder where you installed OTimer. Delete the new personal account file(new_record.otm) and rename your previous recorded file to "new_record.otm". You also need to change the old personal directory name to new one(For example: new_record).
